A Year in KDE from Outside
summary
Analysis covers Sept 2019–Aug 2020 using site-by-site counts and manual reading after automated keyword scraping fails; Phoronix averages an article about KDE every 3–4 days and KDE summary pages span four pages. Coverage centers on Qt licensing controversy, Plasma and the handful of big apps, and distro/phone hardware stories — notably hardware laptops but no phones. Releases and distro rollouts drive pickup; monthly app updates and Plasma Mobile get surprisingly little attention. Concrete advice: publish weekly news, detailed design posts, and distro arrival notes.
